Your school sounded like one.I attended one too.

njokusboy:
Lol, you people just come up with this stories everyday meen... una no dey tire??

Do you know how many threads we'd be creating daily if we were looking at the discriminations faced by naija men....

Lemme tell you a story...

In 2014, boko haram broke into a secondary school in this Nigeria, slaughtered all the boys and sent the girls home. Nobody made a fuss. As soon as they abducted a bunch of girls from a secondary school, bringbackourgirls was born... ddid we complain... hell no...

A recruiter friend of mine was telling me about how they needed to employ 6 people to fill an opening in his company, 10 people were interviewed 6 boys and 4 girls, based on result, the 6 boys fared better but some girls had to be employed, for some foolish reason, 3 smart boys had to go home inorder for 3 dumb girls to be recruited... fair or not fair?
Has anybody screamed discrimination yet?
It's way easier for a girl to be admitted into a tertiary institution than for a guy, a certain amount of women have to be admitted inspite of their perfomances... nd you think being a guy is easy??

As a dude, you have to sweat for every penny you have, ain't nobody gonna fvck and help you buy that car, 90% of single women in this country live way above their means, most don't work but have everything they need and it's not because they have rich parents...

Nobody calls you an idiot for not having a good job when you are a woman, nobody tells you are not "Man enough" if you are unable to provide for ur family... in this country, a single lady who has never earned a penny in her life calls a struggling young man a "poor fool" and nobody says anything about it...

[b]And for those talking about marriage, I just dey use one eye dey look una... It's way harder for a man to get married in this country, you need to have a good job, own a house, you also have to pay a huge bride price and if your wife happens to be from the south east, my brother, you are as good as dead... my uncle still harbours a grudge 30 years after marrying my aunt... His in laws nearly sent him to an early grave...
The baffling thing is that 90% of the Feminists in this section were picked up as soon as they were done with school with no achievement asides a certificate which most of them do not even intend to use... They move around this section talking about how their husbands are the best thing since sliced bread with no regards to the feelings of the other single miserable females who follow them and have so far been unable to catch that "knight in shining armour", they still turn around and chant "it's not easy to be a woman in this country"... You here stupid contradictory statements like "as soon as we are married, anything my husband owns automatically become mine and his mom is an intruder" the fact that they actually contributed zilch to the marriage, notwithstanding... [/b]

No sensible Nigerian man complains about all this, we actually find the show to be quite amusing...

These are just the frustrations of failed women who always believe they are the victim. Forbes conducted a survey of the 100 most powerful women in Africa and 45% of them were Nigerians. The richest black woman in the world is a Nigerian. The former Prime Minister (Ngozo Okonjo Iweala) in the last administration was a woman and certainly the most powerful Minister (Diezani) was a woman.

The highest paid CEO is a woman (Sola David-Borha of Standbic Ibtc). Young female entrepreneurs abound in Nigeria, people in government, in the private sector. Our lazy women on Nairaland just love playing the victim card because of their failed lives. Rather than focus on how to better their lives, they come here and complain. Abeg leave them alone!

You accept to be imperfect. Fortunately for you every male around you is near perfect. From your husband to your brothers, male friends, husband male relatives but only on nairaland that you'd seen weird males with distorted view of life.

Yes, I am imperfect. I can't remember saying the males around me are perfect either, I learnt to focus on their perfection. This topic isn't all encompassing, it's centred on a particular ideology some people (mostly males) believe in. "It's only on NL I see them in QUANTUM" _ meaning, they are everywhere...but somehow, majority are here.

My question to you is "who actually are those suppose males on nairaland" ? Aliens, No?

Please stop deceiving young ladies here with fallacy of emotion.

I rejoice with you

LOL! @ divorce because you said your husband cooks for you

babygirlfl:


Enjoy darling and may your marriage continue to be a source of joy to you. Divorce will never know the way to your home. May God bless your husband abundantly.

Amen. God that brought us all this far, would most definitely see us through.
There is no provision for divorce in my marriage, just love and more love.

Life in Nigeria is generally hard for both genders,so many stereotypes prejudices etc. You cant make these things go away but you can choose to rise above it. I told myself that i'll buy my own car and will live alone before i get married(i like staying by myself)and i'm working towards it and will do it. Most Nigerian women subject themselves to this treatment,say and do nothing about it except rant online. I had a friend who said i was too ambitious for a woman i cleared the fellow sharp sharp. No time to waste with folks like that. To women out there:fight for what you want dont expect it to be handed on a platter if not "express go leave you"

Sometimes I read the posts of some men on NL and wonder and marvel at the level of fooolishness and astounding stupiidity displayed in the name of hatred against Nigerian women.

I keep asking myself if these men have mothers. It's appalling.

Every morning, as early as 5:30am, I see women rushing to work, waiting at BRT parks, running after a moving Danfo, etc. Nobody would see that. Let these same women go on an expensive trips to DisneyLand or whatever-honey-land for a vacation and you would hear how women are gold diggers or materialistic. And we have some men at home lounging, watching games and waiting on their submissive wives' income.

Kudos to all the sane Nigerian wives and mothers out there. Despite all the challenges and condemnation, things have not fallen apart.

It's a shame the schools are not the way they were in those days.

ApexTitan:
Isn't this another thread that perpetuates the victim-hood mentality in women.

"Things are much harder for us.
Nobody appreciates us.
Waaah waaaah waaah"

Cry me a river. As though things are any easier for others.

Caracta:
Crackhaus, I get your point. We don't condemn the men and profess strong hatred for them on social media like they do to us. Even the yahoo boys are celebrated sometimes. We don't carry these things on our heads like crayfish. We live and let live. Let the men do the same.

And why can't a woman wait for her darling husband's income? This shouldn't even be a debate.

On NL, a week hardly goes by without a thread on Nigerian women this, Nigerian women that. I know it gives you guys a hard-on but just go easy. How many of those threads do we have on men?

crackhaus:

I see, so it's the intensity of the threads directed at women that makes you lot come up with stuff.. Okay.
Make una begin create una own threads na...the reason these people keep on starting threads might just be because they know it gets to you ladies on NL, have you thought of that?

And why can't a man wait his submissive wife's income? Is she complaining to the Senate committee on women affairs?

The only thing that would give me a hard-on now would be you nak.ed and your hands working my junk.

crackhaus:

I was going to post something along this line last night but decided not to so it doesn't come off as sentimental.

If these powerful women had gone about blaming society, misinterpreting the constitution, seeing sexism where there's none, or screaming about how patriarchy is responsible for their menstrual flow, I wonder if they would be where they are now.

Enough said!

Lmao.

Well, the threads can be annoying but we should learn to ignore, right? We don't need to create tons of thread as a playback. We are too posh for the back and forth.

Ehn ehn? So a man can wait on his woman's income while he lounges at home watching home videos? That's a new one. Not African. African men are the commander-in-chief right?

And the last part... *deep sigh*

TooNoisy:


I could go on and on, the Chairperson of First Bank is a woman - Ibukun Awosika, at least three bank CEOs are women, one of whom is the highest paid CEO in Nigeria. We have female senators and members of the house. We have several women entrepreneurs some of whom are very very young. Even young Linda Ikeji just bought a house in Banana Island. Genevieve, Omotola etc are making lots of money from Nollywood. Some choose to marry, some choose to remain single. Oluchi, Agbani and co are making money modeling. Tiwa Savage and Yemi Alade are making money singing. Funke Bucknor and Omolara Akinosho are making money as event planners. Banke Meishida is making money as a make up artist. Tara Fela-Durotoye is even more advanced and has started her own franchise.

Yet some lazy women would come here and blame society. The same society that produced Ngozi Okonjo Iweala, Diezani, Stella Oduah etc. They should just accept the fact that they haven't discovered their talent in life. I will advice them to go discover their talents and focus on being something in life rather than blaming society.

being a woman in nigeria is hard....
being a man in nigeria is harder

crackhaus:

Just last week, we were having a conversation, a group of friends...and this argument came up about which gender finds it easier in Nigeria.

The truth is that young Nigerian women have it easier at the end of the day. The females among us whose parents are very well to do still receive monthly stipends from their parents despite being working class with a good job, their excuse is that they're still single. Most dudes on the other hand are fully independent regardless the parents' financial weight.
Most of these young girls screaming how independent they are only need to make a call to someone and they get credit alerts into their account, some can't even remember the last time they used their own money to purchase airtime on their expensive phones.

How did some get such phones you may ask... Very few used the money they worked for.
The ones with solid financial backgrounds will use daddy's and mommy's monthly stipend while majority spread their legs at one time or the other to enjoy that life. I'm not calling them wh.ores but we know how most young Nigerian women run things these days.

Most are getting proposed to by rich suitors left, right, and center.
Banks and corporate organizations whose businesses revolve around customer service and contact with people, employ a far greater percentage of women compared to men. Luckily for us in the engineering field, that scale is balanced as more men get employed.

Any woman that says being a woman in Nigeria is too hard most probably comes from a poor background, has parents who treated her less than her brothers, is jobless/underpaid, or is married to a man who makes life hard for her.
But hold up, it's these same set of women that claim to have the best husbands, brothers, and fathers in the world...so I can't help but wonder where their own experiences come from - the disconnect is just too clear.

Indeed very amusing...

crackhaus:

Too posh indeed, I hear you...

I don't support any man waiting on his wife's income, never will...but in a world where women want equality, y'all should have no problem with it.

Don't sigh, you now know what will give me a hard-on.

TooNoisy:


Full stop. Nigeria is hard for everyone. The way they complain, one will think the men live in mansions and the women are internally displaced people. Compared to most other african women, Nigerian women have it relatively easy. When you spend all your time watching Nollywood, Telemundo and Celebrity gossip, how would you become a CEO? When all you know is the latest Brazilian Hair, the latest eye lashes, eye brows, gucci and channel bags, how will you become a successful entrepreneur?

If Nigerian women do the right things they will get the right results. Half of them are just looking to marry another rich guy so that they never have to do anything reasonable for themselves. Stop blaming society; take a loot at the minor and ask if you are doing your best. Bunch of hypocrites.

Caracta:


Equality? There can't be equality. Just respect, tolerance and fairness. It's no arm-wrestling match.

That hard-on part got to you right? Eeyah.
